My skirt needed a safety pin today during my travels! And I had one 😄

I’m embarrassed by how long it took me to remember that a light switch also controls the wall outlets in many other countries. I was looking around this Buenos Aires hotel room so confused tonight that I couldn’t get my phone to charge.

Buenas noches from Ushuaia, Argentina, at the end of the world! It was 8 degrees Celsius today, not bad. And I just interviewed a pioneer of the Church here whose testimony made me cry. More to come for Church News.

Texting moms some pictures of missionaries is a favorite thing to do on assignment. Today it’s the Argentina Comodoro Rivadavia Mission.

“We’ve been all our lives doing over and over again the things our mothers have done.” - Laura Puchado Here is my article with children of some the first Church pioneers in Uruguay. thechurchnews.com/members/2025/0…

Here is my story from Uruguay, where Elder Gary E. Stevenson noted the multi-generational strength of the Church and he said the future is in good hands because of the children. thechurchnews.com/leaders/2025/0…

I find it funny I brought a hair curling iron in my bag all this way to South America and haven’t even had time to use it. On the way to another city.

Buenas tardes from Valparaiso and Viña Del Mar, Chile. I just met a returned missionary who knows my missionary son’s companion right now in Bolivia. The world is large and small at the same time!

The Chile Viña del Mar Mission has good singers 🥰

After almost a week in South America for this assignment, I go to sleep and wake up with Spanish phrases running through my mind.

I thought I was doing good until I got to Chile. The Spanish is so fast.

I asked someone to take my picture here in Santiago, Chile, and this is what I got. I like it but not a lot ☺️

And now we come to the exciting news for Chile and another reason why I’m here. The Antofagasta Chile Temple will be dedicated tomorrow, Sunday. Here is a look how the Saints are looking forward to it. thechurchnews.com/temples/2025/0…

Good morning from Antofagasta, Chile. It’s the dedication day for this new house of the Lord! I’m here to write about it in Church News — a living record of the Restoration.

On Father’s Day, Elder Gary E. Stevenson dedicated the Antofagasta Chile Temple — a place he said where all can learn of their Heavenly Father’s plan of happiness. Read my Church News story here. thechurchnews.com/temples/2025/0…

This was a fun podcast to host! Three Strive to Be artists joined me to talk about how worship music is blessing youth and young adults around the world.

Looking forward to covering the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints's Seminar for New Mission Leaders over the next few days for Church News. No better time to feel the importance of living and sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ.

My father-in-law barely takes pictures. Yet he came back from his European cruise with multiple photos of gelato on his phone.
